FTL + SS13. Players are split into crews of two to three and put on their own ships, then left to warp around the sector and hope to run into each other. The Captain will need some of the strategizing of FTL, while the crew will require the monkeying about and nonstop shenanigans of SS13.

As of yet they're working on a GMod gamemode, but may make it standalone. They currently have a very experimental version.

An old-school 2D hardcore roguelike platformer with retro 8/16-bit graphics.
No, wait...

A voxel-based builder game!
Damn...

A modern war first-person shooter!
Fuck...
.
A zombie survival horror game with focus on the main characters.
COME ON!

A free-to-play MOBA!


Something's wrong here.

Eh... I wouldn't complain about a faithful update of Quake II. I'm actually running out of games to wish for.

Do you enjoy it, Janet? :)

Oh, damn late but yeah. RoTT 2013 was like the most recent FPS I really, really liked. I hope interceptor gets even more SP content into it eventually. If I have one complaint about it, and it's one that applies to the original too. It's that secret levels are just for padding your score really. No actual challenges or complex level design in them.

The game also preforms a bit weird since it runs for me at 60fps on all but a few areas on max everything, but 20-30 on medium.

Alright, I am buying this for Christmas. The original game was, along with Quake and Duke Nukem 3d, super cool. :D

Is Quake 2 very good? I really liked Quake 1, and I love the idea of shooters involving magic and demons like that, so I was kinda turned off by the whole "aliens" thing.

A game that I would definitely play is a first person Terraria-esque game.
Don't say Minecraft,  that's not what I mean. I mean something where there's the same type of progression, a ton of obtainable items and weapons, and maybe some crazy boss battles. Or really, just a FPS which features mainly huge, insane boss battles against lovecraftian horrors.

Quake 2 is pretty damn awesome and it plays in a fairly similar manner to Quake 1. The issue is the monsters and lovecraftian element is totally removed and replaced with cyborgs and future tech. I'd still recommend a try.

It's more like Quake 3: Arena than it is like Q1 in overall feel and visual style, which is personally why I like it. Weirdly enough, I also found it to be a bit reminiscent of Doom 3 in the way that you complete objectives to open new areas until you can move on to the next overall area, which works better for Quake 2 than it did for D3.

I've heard people say that it's one of the more forgettable single-player games that id put out, but I put it about on the same tier as Q3 and Doom. I can't recall ever setting up a deathmatch though, so maybe I'm missing out.

I've gotta admit that my experience of Q2 is coloured positively by the fact that I played through it co-op with my dad. Such fun times X)

Quake 1 is more the odd one out in it's own series. The medieval/Cthulhu elements were, as itisnotlogical says, replaced with robots and sci-fi.

Hexen and Heretic are the magic and demons ones to play. They're much more similar to Doom then Quake, but add an early inventory system like what was in Duke Nukem (Hold medpack for later use kind of thing). I would also recommend "Blood". It's got the same fantasy/Cthulhu vibe as Quake, where you are hunting down the evil god of a cult you used to belong to. With copious amounts of blood of course. :P
It's got a lot of references to horror movies in it, and the levels are really well designed with solid themes and layouts rather then tunnels.

Keep in mind though, the Steam version of Quake 2 is missing all the music, as are all modern releases of Quake 1. You'll have to find some sort of patch, or else buy the game on a disc like some sort of barbarian savage :P

Although, depending on how much you value atmosphere, it can be rather rewarding to play without the original music. I played the Steam demo, and there was this loud distorted bass throb in the background that has apparently replaced the music for that level. It was very creepy and fitting.

Step 1: buy steam version

Step 2: download ISO.

Step 3: have awesome heavy-metal soundtrack.
